Crawler Canyon Presents: ICFTW Vol.16 Ep.9, this is also a Quickview (LCX CF chassis for 10.2)

This is definitely episode 9, because the truck gets work and some adjustments, but it's also a Quick(re)view of the LCX Racing (ahem) "LCX Racing 1/10th RC Crawler Car Carbon Fibre Chassis Frame Rails Chassis Rail Set for Axial SCX10 II SCX10.2, Upgrades Parts Accessories"
I've concluded that they don't name anything, they just string search keywords together. So we know how it's named, but how does it work?

OMG!! Damn near swallowed my hard candy 🍬 quote...are those wings?!?! Awesome video! Was nice hanging with you for an hour. Always learn something. 💯

[@gibsonlife573]

I'm 36 years old and I watch you all the time right dude I'm tired at 7 but it's probably because I get up in like one in the morning to go to work and then on my Friday when I get home I'm up till 2 or 3 wrenching just so I can have Saturday and Sunday to maybe play with my kids life can be the real B

[@jjvizms]

Honestly speaking, i saw 1hour and i thought to my inner self, this is going to be gooooood.😂😂

[@NTX_RC]

You can't forget theCreeper cab, running without fenders is an instant upgrade over all other full body trucks.

[@CrawlerCanyon]

I say this to the visitor with the Creep 'n Rupture fitted Ecto-- no fenders is cheating. Let's also not forget that a painted Creep cab is under 3oz. DOUBLE CHEATING

[@fromfin90]

you're not Just making the kids and (andwife) cosplay props, you are making them memories.(And making them dependent on you haha)

[@mfnJOSH]

Everyone bawks at the ar44's and the scx10ii because its an older platform comparatively, but toothless shows just how good the majority of these kits and rtr's really are these days. Stock kit, some wrench/tune/tinker time and for minimal bucks any of these trucks can be a surprisingly competent rig. Personally i like the ar44's over the ar45's purely on the fact you have the option to 3 link or 4 link. Which is great for building custom rigs. It simplifies so much buukding to soa and 4 link vs susing out geometry for a soc and 3 link.

[@CrawlerCanyon]

Oh, i'll take the AR44, or even most any clone of the AR44 over the AR45. The AR45 is not a step forward, AFAIC. They needed an offset pumpkin for that rattletrap of a gearbox in the 10.3, so we got the AR45. If I want an offset portal axle essentially limited to 3-link, give me TRX-4.

[@Andy_Yates]

All this talk about cosplay weapons, I think we need to see the final product! I'm genuinely curious. Toothless is looking awesome! I guess we see in part why the Element platform is so good because it's based on an already excellent base

[@EddieDesigned]

Did you know? The act of pinching the chassis front and rear dramatically reduces side flex. With both sides pointing "towards" each other, in order to flex one side, you have to compress the other, something carbon is very good at resisting! You are in essence, triangulating the chassis

[@gibsonlife573]

So what you're saying is when your wife send you something like that it gets you stared up to build it so all you got to do is put in your head and you'll build it I love it man I'm the same way I'm I just haven't quite made it to purchasing a lathe or a Top End Mill

[@joseywilds3133]

The chassi servo problem is also a problem on our 24s unfortunately on 1/10 3D printed chassi does not work, the carbon rail vs the c channel, I can see the difference already without you doing anything yet, good info thanks for the video!

[@thindigital]

49 this year, still enjoy Orbital and Deadmau5, pc games and toy trucks.

[@CrawlerCanyon]

I haven't thought about Orbital in a minute. I just had a tangentially related Wipeout 2097 flashback. I guess the Prodigy station on Pandora will fill the workshop today. Orbital reminded me of Oxygene, which made me think of Toxygene from The Orb, which made me reminisce about The KLF. Man, that era of music was amazing.

[@thindigital]

@@CrawlerCanyon I'm lucky to have seen them a couple times back in the day, lived down the road from Manchester UK during the 90s so was right in the middle of the Rave scene, great music indeed. Here's a link to my favorite Orbital album, just get through track 1 and it's all good 😆 kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIisdWVopNF5jac

[@jord001]

@@CrawlerCanyon Great bands and great music, ive been listening to Shpongle a bit and also some psychadelic trance on YT, im mainly listen to classic rock from the 60's 70's and 80's but I do like myself a bit of electronic music too, JM Jarre , Tangerine Dream, that kind of stuff. You have a great listen to the Prodigy, i may even do that myself. Have a good one.

[@JIPPERR_1]

Good thumbnail! Just starting the video so its a good start

[@idiot_RC]

I sent that in...I'm not surprised you forgot, it took like a month to get there...the vendor kept having "shipping issues" and it was coming from the Middle Kingdom.

[@CrawlerCanyon]

When the box showed up, I had no idea what it could be. "I don't remember ordering anything," I said to no one.

[@uan588]

The Canyon Truly is Zen Master

[@craigseary2368]

Most of my body is 55, parts have been force ably aged from accident damage, still a teenager inside. So yep tired at 8am is nothing new. Rc is life.

[@FaithSaraG]

I was yelling at the screen about the side plates. 😂

[@pcoplin]

Sweet build. Love those rails. I'm 44 BTW. I would love a set of Axial rails, don't mind paying. Want to build a Scout body with Wraith belly pan and axles for Axial fest. Taking my 7y/o!

[@tangosierra1]

Two birds stoned at once😅

[@NTX_RC]

First thing that came to mind, lol #rickyisms

[@JohnCammarota]

I do like that front bumper much so.....

[@davewilson3295]

To paraphrase Sun Tsu form the Art of War ; That which does not slow me down makes me faster.

[@derrickhays3627]

Awesome as always, just a thought the shuttle and shutter might be side flex in the rear chassis rail, more bracing? You'll figure it out. Thanks.

[@CrawlerCanyon]

I'm going to take another comment on here as if it was my own idea and put more pinch in the rear.

[@larryhornsbyjr6731]

The three T’s Toothless Two for Tuesday Does it get any better than this?

[@themountain59]

Why do you have those huuuge shock towers at the rear ?

[@CrawlerCanyon]

The rear end is SO light, that sourcing suitably soft springs is equal parts annoying and expensive. Laying a shock down lowers the effective rate, so I can just lean 'em over and "cheat" a softer spring. I have boxes of springs at and over ~3lbs/in, so might as well put 'em to use.

[@themountain59]

@@CrawlerCanyon yes I got that but smaller angled towers would be easier on the eyes😄

[@gibsonlife573]

In the same aspect that I say that I am so blessed I have so many blessings from the Lord Jesus Christ is just blessed me time and in timeout I've watched so many signs and miracles happen in my life from going from being at a drug addict to prison to all these other things that are horrible in life and now having everything but still I fight to fight everyday when I talk about the fight I'm talking about the war that we fight against Satan he tried to hurt us try to wear us down matter fact it all said in the Bible he forgets what is behind him and he looks forward to what is in front of him to run the race so not only do we need to be healthy physically but spiritually my friend God bless you for what you do man I know we're just you know build RC but it's a little bit more than that

[@bazzani21]

1hr "quick view", 10min is a quick view 🤦

[@CrawlerCanyon]

I did say it was hidden. an ICFTW installment is usually 40-45 minutes, so the rest is the hidden Quickview. Perfect math.

[@idiot_RC]

you must be new here
